Hello, Chris, darling.
I just got back from a walk to the Y, a workout, and a walk home. I'm having my first coffee of the day, and feeling pretty good.
I've had some OP soup, but there's cookie dough in the fridge, and it's calling my name.
Hi all! Dan's home - he thinks he has strep. . .he's going to the doc in a little while to find out.
We got an answer from God about his job prospect. After he sent in his proposal, the client decided it wasn't as huge a manual as they thought. So, it's something that he can do on the side, while keeping his current job, rather than having to quit. Phew! Eventually he may need to go full-time freelance, but for now, this is a relief. And, we will get a big lump sum payment to put to our debt. That's cool too!
My sponsor's helping me come up with a food plan for now. I did OK yesterday, but feel very crazy when I have sugar. So, my new plan is basic meals, a couple of snacks (all at the table) with no table sugar or sugared soft drinks. (I say 'table sugar' so I can still have fruit. I'm pretty sure that doesn't make me crazy.)
Progress:
This morning, instead of sitting at the computer till I fall asleep at the keyboard, (I work night shift) I took the dog and myself down to the beach and had a good walk for 45 minutes. Sunshine on my brain, salty air in my lungs...ahh...I slept like a baby til just a little while ago. I may get over to the gym for a weights class later. Maybe. If not, I'll get there tomorrow.
I realized that I haven't been on the scale all week. Normally, when I'm "back on track," I'm hopping on every morning to see my progress. I realize how counter productive this is, (No loss=failure=despair=binge) I'll get on Sunday, maybe, but I'm enjoying racking up abstinent days instead! Currently, 3.5.
Ellis: Step away from the frig!!!!
%$#* seductive cookie dough! Foul temptress!!
Busy is right! Class last night and work today...supposed to take the little one to dance class, but she's tired and cranky so I told her we'd just stay home and chill. Dance is supposed to be fun for her, not a bothersome chore.
So tonight I'm paying bills, reading with the girls, and planning some activities for the after school program tomorrow.
Chris -- How did the conference with your son's teacher go?
Angi -- Hurray for your husband's job! Glad you're feeling better, too!
Ellis -- Walk, the Y, and another walk?! High five, girlfriend! You're doing great. Maybe I'll either do some yoga or my elliptical later. My mood could stand some endorphin improvement.
I'll check back in later and see if there's any action around here. Have a good one!
